💨 Abstract

In August 2025, Israel's security cabinet is considering a full reoccupation of Gaza to eliminate Hamas, despite international pressure and internal opposition. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu aims to install a non-Hamas civil government through a phased operation lasting up to five months. Around one million Palestinians may be displaced. The U.S. supports Israel's decision, but Israeli military leaders warn the plan risks hostages and traps troops in Gaza.
